Embed cohort definitions in estimation code #326

Closed anthonysena closed 6 years ago

anthonysena commented 7 years ago

Related to #261. Per @pbr6cornell

Let's consider, instead of an external reference to a cohort id, that instead selecting a cohort embeds the cohort, and its associated conceptsets into the 'estimation' project, so that its fully self-contained. (akin to how conceptsets get embedded into cohort definitions). then, when we write the R code, instead of referencing cohortid, we can instantiate the SQL for the cohort definitions, place in a temp table, and reference them in the rest of the package, like how we've done other prior studies. this will make the package transportable across instances.
